Wiretap: Antony Sings Leonard, We Swoon
We were surfing the YouTube for a Leonard Cohen clip, and when we came across Antony (of Antony and the Johnsons) performing "If It Be Your Will" from the concert doc Leonard Cohen: I'm Your Man, well, done deal.
Cohen, one of our favorite songwriters, always blends the sacred and the secular into a wholly unique musical experience. Antony elevates Cohen's sentiments to the level of a gospel concert, dredging the depths for something arcane, beautiful and almost otherworldly. Or, so we think.
